“Pain is part of gain. No pain, no gain. The years of wastage and all that we have done wrong have finally caught up with us.”
These were the words of the General Overseer of Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, who spoke to news men on Friday after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Bakare, who was Buhari’s running mate in the 2011 presidential election on the platform of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) said that he is sure that the President Buhari’s administration would, in due time, respond to the yearnings of Nigerians.
“I will like to appeal to all Nigerians that we should just excise a bit of patience. This change will not become chain that will tie all of us down.
“Change for good takes time and we should just exercise a little bit more of patience. We trust that government is listening and the leaders are listening too and they will respond to the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians.”
Bakare said that when one is driving in the wrong direction and suddenly realises one’s mistake, there would be a lot of suffering in returning to the right direction.
“Pain is part of gain. No pain, no gain. The years of wastage and all that we have done wrong have finally caught up with us.
“All we are praying for is wisdom for this government to think right and to do the right things, so that gradually, we can begin to come out of the woods.” [myad]
